Default Re: 2001 Pure Stock Drags

No, it wasn't a Buick. The quickest qualifier was our very own "CopoPete", in his '69 COPO Camaro w/ZL-1 engine. I think his qualifying time was a 12.34, BUT he participated in the "Certified Stock" tear down, as did Bob Karakashian, the #2 qualifier in his '69.5 SuperBee w/440 6-pack. It's pretty cool that the top 2 qualifiers were "certified". Pete's engine only came in at 10.8:1 compression, and has a TON of room to improve...truly a package capable of 11 second ETs in Pure Stock trim. he's only had it going 2 weeks, so when he gets it dialed in, LOOK OUT!

Avanti:

Nice to see you stop by! I've gotta say, that the rivalry that has develop between our car and the Studes has been a lot of fun. The Stude people I met this past weekend were all VERY friendly, and showed great sportsmanship. In the back of my mind, I was hoping to get paired up with the PBW (that's "Plain Brown Wrapper" in Stude-talk), and that is how it worked out...also, from what I heard after the race, the crowd enjoyed the rivalry as well. Hope to see you guys next year!
